How I Do My Daily Devotionals

Hi there guys! So today I wanted to talk to you guys about how I do my daily devotions. This is a good way to spend qauality time with Jesus. Alright, I'm going to let you in on a little shameful confession- it's usually very, very hard for me to do devotions every, single day, and it's also quite a conundrum to wake up in time. I know , I know, "Shame on you, Rebecca!" It  just gets hard sometimes. However, in order to get up the majority of the time, I use this nugget of spiritual information, given to me by my pastor. Once in a sermon he said, " In order for me to do my devotions, and keep Satan away from me throughout the day, I have to let my spirit man wake up before my fleshly man. If I let my grumpy fleshly man wake up first, I will never get my time with God started! However, when I let my spirit man wake up first- I can pray up and get my time with Jesus started and conquer the day." I love this so much. It really helps me realize that I should always let the Jesus in me wakeup first, so I can keep Satan behind me and Carpe Diem (Latin for seize the day). That was my spirit food to give to you today. So, without further ado, here is my devotional routine.

I would say I wake up between 5:30 - 6:00 in the morning everyday, even in the summer ( Cross Country practice) and I will usually go straight to my Bible and pray that God would show me what he wants me to read for the day, and open up a page in my Bible, I will then read the passage and start to read my devotion book "Daily Devotionals For the God Girl", and really ponder what is being read, afterwards I will pray and thank God for waking me up, ask for forgiveness and ask God to bless my day. I will then start my day!

Thanks for reading, and I hope you have a great night!
